CLARITY Act
Details
The "Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025," or "CLARITY Act of 2025," establishes a regulatory framework for digital commodities, granting the CFTC exclusive jurisdiction over spot market transactions and related entities like exchanges, brokers, and dealers.

This bill establishes a comprehensive federal regulatory framework for spot digital commodity markets under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).

Crucially, the legislation creates explicit statutory exemptions protecting software developers, node operators, validators, and self-custody wallet providers from being classified as financial intermediaries, providing legal clarity for the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem.

Prohibiting Foreign Adversary Interference in Cryptocurrency Markets Act
Details
This bill amends the Commodity Exchange Act to prohibit digital commodity platforms owned or established by entities from foreign adversary nations from registering or operating in the United States. It provides a legal definition for "digital commodity" that includes cryptocurrencies and virtual currencies, while explicitly excluding securities and US central bank digital currencies. The bill also defines various crypto market participants like brokers, custodians, and dealers, crucially excluding those solely engaged in validating digital commodity transactions.
This bill proposes establishing a "Strategic Bitcoin Reserve" within the United States, mandating the Treasury Secretary to acquire 1,000,000 Bitcoins over five years. It directs the secure cold storage of these holdings, alongside Bitcoins obtained through forfeiture or gifts, in geographically dispersed facilities. The legislation also establishes transparency requirements, including public cryptographic attestations, and permits states to voluntarily store their Bitcoin holdings in segregated accounts within the Reserve. Funding mechanisms for the Bitcoin purchases include utilizing Federal Reserve System surplus funds and revaluing gold certificates.
